Description

Following Former President Barack Obama’s bashing of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, I’m sitting down with immigration attorney Deron Smallcomb for a data-driven reality check. How does U.S. immigration enforcement actually compare to other democracies? If America enforced immigration the way the UK, Australia, or Japan do, arrests would move faster, deportations would happen sooner, and appeals would be far more limited.

We’re breaking down:

• Appeal rights in the U.S. vs. peer nations

• Asylum approval rates

• Enforcement timelines

• Crime outcomes in countries with stricter policies

You can debate policy. But let’s debate facts. Watch the full conversation — then decide for yourself.
